There Are Twenty One Ways To Do...Your Job?

A simple everyday push up. The classic push up has you place your hands flat and directly on the floor with your shoulders directly above your hands and your body in a flat plank position with your legs out and feet on your toes. You then lower your body and your chest gets within a few inches of the deck, while your body remains in the straight position, and then you push up to plank position and then repeat. A fairly effective exercise with the addition of either conducting one hundred repetitions in a row or working this simple push up into sets and then count down or count up drills.

What does this have to do with my job, my career or anything to do with my workplace?

Here is the point so either listen up or drop and give me twenty!
